Who Let Him Cultivate Immortality

Chapter 482: Half-immortal?

Time rewinds a bit.

"So this is the Seek Tao Sect, huh? Quite magnificent."

Ming Tai stood in front of the mountain gate of the Seek Tao Sect, marveling at the sight.

"Ming Tai, let's go," Elder Sikong urged him to follow.

The two of them passed through a bamboo forest, crossed a stream, and entered the core area of the Seek Tao Sect, the main venue for the celebration.

The River Spirit poked its head out, scrutinizing everyone entering the Seek Tao Sect to confirm if they were qualified to enter.

"This year's celebration is livelier than ever," the River Spirit murmured softly, watching the prodigies and powerful figures stream in, a satisfied smile on its face.

It was the spirit of the stream, blessed by the heavens, gaining a spark of spiritual light, and was enlightened by the Xiantian Taoist, developing true intelligence. Grateful for the Xiantian Taoist's kindness, it voluntarily became the sect's guardian spirit, witnessing the rise and fall of the Seek Tao Sect.

What the River Spirit didn't notice was that along with Ming Tai and Elder Sikong, a group of uninvited guests had also entered the Seek Tao Sect.

"I've long heard that the Seek Tao Sect has a powerful guardian spirit. Seeing it today, it truly lives up to its reputation. Unfortunately for you, you've met me," the national teacher sneered, bypassing the River Spirit and leading his group into the Seek Tao Sect.

Entering the core area of the Seek Tao Sect, the national teacher removed his disguise. There were too many cultivators here; even if they couldn't see them, they could bump into them. Continuing to hide would be disadvantageous.

Along the way, the national teacher saw several Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators and thought to himself that it was a good thing he brought enough people. Otherwise, it wouldn't be easy to destroy the Seek Tao Sect alone.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"When do we make our move, my lord?" Black and White Venerable asked quietly through divine sense transmission.

"No rush. The celebration has just begun, and the Seek Tao Sect is on high alert. First, we need to scout and figure out how many Body Fusion and Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators are participating in this celebration. Calculate the difference in combat power between both sides, then decide when to strike."

"According to the standards of immortal sects, each one should have at least one Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator and a method comparable to the Tribulation Crossing stage. The Seek Tao Sect can't possibly deploy all its combat power for this celebration; important places like the sect's treasury must be guarded."

"The River Spirit we saw earlier should be the method comparable to the Tribulation Crossing stage. The real Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators of the Seek Tao Sect should be elsewhere. When we strike swiftly, the Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators of the Seek Tao Sect won't have time to react. Even if they can rush over, it will be too late."

Dong—Dong—Dong—

The sound of the bell echoed in the Seek Tao Sect, a total of twelve chimes, signaling the official start of the celebration.

The group fell silent, watching their target ascend the altar step by step to preside over the sacrificial ceremony.

"What an ancient sacrificial method, seems to be from antiquity," the national teacher remarked with slight surprise. They were cultivators from the early Great Yu period, only one dynasty away from antiquity.

The Seek Tao Sect was established in the late Great Yu period, yet it mastered such an ancient sacrificial method.

"This Seek Tao Sect has some interesting things," Black and White Venerable commented indifferently. Among the group, his status was second only to the national teacher.

The ancient sacrificial method didn't necessarily mean anything; it could have been found in some ancient book.

After all, there were still many ancient relics yet to be fully excavated.

"A mere ordinary boy, repeatedly thwarting our Great Yu's plans. Doesn't he know the meaning of death?"

As the celebration ended, the national teacher's brow relaxed, and a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.

"My lord, you mean..."

The national teacher analyzed for the group, "Haven't you noticed? Compared to during the sacrificial ceremony, the number of high-level cultivators here is decreasing. It seems I overestimated the Seek Tao Sect's standing in Great Xia."

"These high-level cultivators must have participated in the sacrificial ceremony out of obligation. Now that the ceremony is over, the various activities and the young cultivators' finals prepared by the Seek Tao Sect don't interest them, so they've left."

The group showed excited expressions. The decrease in high-level cultivators meant their actions would be unimpeded, and the pressure would be greatly reduced.

"Indeed, destiny favors Great Yu," the national teacher smiled, feeling pleased. With this, the Seek Tao Sect was doomed.

"However, we must not be careless. It's inconvenient to use divine sense here. Spread out and gather intelligence on the Seek Tao Sect, then report back to me."

The national teacher pointed to the ground, "I'll be waiting for you here."

"Yes."

The group dispersed, leaving the national teacher alone.

"They won't be back for a while. I should also gather intelligence on the Seek Tao Sect."

The national teacher was cautious. He wanted to verify the intelligence gathered by his subordinates with his own findings to ensure its reliability.

"The busiest place here should be the market street. I'll go take a look," the national teacher mused, heading towards the market street.

"A small market street, yet it hides so many Body Fusion stage cultivators," the national teacher squinted. His cultivation was profound, and he could see at a glance that the seemingly ordinary restaurant owners and waiters were formidable experts who could dominate outside.

"Body Fusion stage alone can't stir up much trouble."

He could kill six Tribulation Crossing stage cultivators by himself, even though they were all in the early Tribulation Crossing stage, which was still impressive. He didn't take Body Fusion stage cultivators seriously.

"Sir, would you like some barbecue?" Xiao Wu, Xiao Liu, and Xiao Qi, three alluring ghosts, were soliciting customers at the entrance of the barbecue shop, doing their best to attract attention.

The barbecue shop was bustling. Liu and Gao, the two masters, used their three heads and six arms, working simultaneously, significantly improving the barbecue efficiency.

"Make way, make way, I'm here to deliver meat," the slaughterhouse owner shouted, asking the customers to make way so he could enter.

The barbecue shop's business was so good that even though they had prepared many skewers in advance, it still wasn't enough.

The Immortal Fairy sat with his legs crossed, watching everything with a big smile.

Today's sales could match ten days' worth.

Lu Yang had temporarily changed the name of the barbecue shop. Otherwise, if the outside cultivators remembered the name of the barbecue shop and spread the word, the Jiuyou Sect would find out that the Seek Tao Sect also had a "Come Again Barbecue" shop, making it difficult to fool the Jiuyou Sect.

Hearing Xiao Wu's shout, the national teacher looked up and saw the two barbecue masters and the slaughterhouse owner, his heart skipping a beat.

"Three Body Fusion stage ghostly beings? The Seek Tao Sect's Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator is here?"

Only a Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator could refine Body Fusion stage ghostly beings.

Generally, ghostly beings and their refiner wouldn't be too far apart. The Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator of the Seek Tao Sect must be hiding in this barbecue shop.

"Luck is on my side," the national teacher smiled confidently.

He had planned to scout first but unexpectedly found a chance to eliminate a Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator early.

His Dao fruit prototype was related to concealment, allowing him to bypass the River Spirit, which was comparable to the Tribulation Crossing stage, and lead his group into the Seek Tao Sect.

His Dao fruit prototype could ensure he silently dealt with the Seek Tao Sect's Tribulation Crossing stage cultivator.

He walked into the barbecue shop and saw the leisurely Immortal Fairy.

The Immortal Fairy also saw him.

"Half-immortal?"

They spoke in unison.

The second update will be at eleven o'clock.
